The room, breakfast, and staff were excellent but the parking was problematic in that there simply wasn't enough. The towns of Houghton and Hancock were interesting and the mining history of the area was fascinating. Napoleon at the front desk was accommodating and thoughtful even when he was the only person at the desk on a very busy weekend. 10 stars for him!!

Pool chemicals were to the level of toxic. We went in for a few minutes and my eyes were burning from just sitting in the hot tub. My kids swam in the pool a few minutes but we left quickly after they couldn’t quit coughing due to the amount of chemicals in the pool.

Great location. Very nice view on the water side. We booked this place partially for this reason. But “no room with water view for what you paid for”. “Not tomorrow either. That’s not how it works”. We booked it from Expedia. Would suggest to specify what kind of the rooms to get with what price. No room service the second day, not even trash pick up. The toilet was backed up the night we checked in. We run out of body wash the second day. Hot breakfasts is good. Even different items for the 2 days we stayed. Staff friendly.

Overall it is a very nice property. The staff is friendly and professional. They addressed questions quickly and thoroughly. However, I did not like the window shade as although it appears opaque you can see outlines of people passing by (I had a 1st fl room) and the nearby parking lot light shone through all night. I also had to ask for some hand soap for the bathroom sink. I would definitely stay there again. The proximity to downtown Houghton is amazing!

I was concerned about whether or not our room had been cleaned prior to our stay. There was long black hairs in the bathroom that wasn’t ours. Plus the toilet paper rolls didn’t have the finished point that is usually in an unused room.

The hotel is in a great location. This was our second time staying there. The staff is very friendly and the hotel smells clean as soon as you walk in, same with our room. Our room had a balcony which we really enjoyed and even though our room was next to the elevator, we didn’t hear a peep. The only downside for me was that the bed was so firm, like the floor with a blanket on it. That’s also personal preference. If we’re ever in that area again I would stay there.

I am a Hilton member and I was put in a first level room with a few of a truck and car in my window. Room was nice but heard water running in the walls. Paid top dollar. Hotel.com has done this to me before. The worst rooms for the most $$. Disappointed in both Hotel.com and Hilton to put me and my husband in the lowest level of accommodations

BEWARE!! I was in the area for business. A change in plans forced me to cancel my reservation a few days after I made the reservation (through Expedia) and many days prior to my anticipated stay. I was informed that the reservation had been cancelled and had a confirmation from Expedia. On the day of my cancelled reservation I get a notice from Expedia asking me about my stay. I called to discover that the reservation had in fact not been cancelled. Expedia informed me that there was no evidence of the cancellation and that I would be responsible for the full amount of the reservation (4 days). I was further informed by Expedia that the property manager would not consider either a refund or a date change! Do not stay here! These people do not appear to be honest and they certainly do not care about their guests.
